Heyo!! Good To See Another MHA Non-canon Being Around.

We need to clean a room, do any beings have any tips? (We need tips that keep in mind that our issues are mainly from AuDHD and chronic pain rn).

Once again, we haven't posted in a while, lol.

Honestly, just posting this so that people know that we are still alive, lol.

We haven't posted in a while, lol.

Pretty sure there's also some posts in our drafts that may or may not get posted at any point.

This is just the whole post, lol.

First poem to post, lol.

No tw or cw I can think of.

This poem is very dog related.

The formatting is different on here than it was on my notes app, so it might seem weird. Although it might have seemed weird anyway, lol.

You Taught Me/Bad Dog

You taught me to fight

Yet when I fight

You label me a

Bad dog

You taught me to bite

But when I bite

You call me a

Bad dog

You taught me to growl

Yet when I growl

You say I'm a

Bad dog

You taught me this

But when I listen

You declare me a

Bad dog

You taught me

Yet I listen and

You insist I'm a

Bad dog

You taught me

How to be a

Bad dog

Firstly, species dysphoria is definitely a thing, and it's a lot like gender dysphoria (coming from beings who have both).

Secondly, absolutely it fucking sucks when we see the "I am human" things. Like, nope, that's not true. None of us are human.

(We wrote most of this a while ago, lol)

I know everyone in non/alterhuman community always makes jokes about these 'prove you're human' captchas (hell our host posted one the other day lmao) but I wonder, does anyone else get genuinely upset by these?

I don't mean the jokes btw, I mean the captcha itself

I know it's probably a really dumb thing to get upset over and the wording on a captcha doesn't mean a damn thing but still, it gets to me

Maybe that's just because I'm ahuman but it makes me upset to even think about having to 'prove I'm human' when I'm not

It makes me feel sick

I don't want to be seen as human, I don't want to be labeled as human, I don't want other people to call me human, I don't want to call myself human, I don't even want entertain the mere suggestion that I could be a human or anything similar to it

Again, I know that the wording on captchas don't mean shit, but I can't help that it makes me upset, it just does

I certainly don't wanna have to get upset every time I log into something online, it's exhausting

I guess it kinda gives a feeling of dysphoria? I dunno that's what our host Berri says, even he isn't sure though cause he only experiences gender dysphoria but I've heard species dysphoria is a thing so maybe that's what it is

Idk

I guess I kinda just wanna know that I'm not alone in this feeling, that I'm not just being worthlessly dramatic

Gonna start using this for theriform animals (around those it is safe to) instead of the usual "real" or "biological" or other terms.

Hope strikeout doesn't mess with accessibility things. If it does, we are really sorry.

Also, question: What would the "human" version of this kinda thing be? Like a version to talk about being in a human body (or what appears to most as a human body) but maybe not being human? (Strikeout cause dumb question, lol)

Theriform [Official Coining Post]

Theriform Adjective (can applied as a noun in certain phrasing, see examples)

From θηρίον (thēríon) [diminutive of θήρ thḗr, “wild beast”] and μορφή (morphe) ["shape"/"figure"/"look"].

Definition:

A theriform animal is one which was born into a body that is typical/expected of it's species and observable as such by everyone, with species-typical levels of sapience/intelligence and whose behaviour is unaltered by being born into a human body/raised in a form perceived as human.

It is not the 'opposite' of therian despite similar etymology but is instead to be viewed as a complimentary term to therian, nonhuman, alterhuman, otherkin etc as it exists to specify certain details of a species whilst not invalidating the identities of those who are not theriform. It is made to replace potentially invalidating phrases like 'bio(logical) animal' or 'real animal'.

It is not an identity label and therefore has no flag or symbol and does not need one. Do not create these things please, or use the term to describe yourself on a personal level.

Alternative versions for non-animals could include: floraform, nat(ur)form, techform, fictoform, feyform, voidform, starform, divineform etc

Examples:

"Lol it's so funny being a cat and having a theriform cat as a pet we're both just kitties vibing but with different body shapes."

"Just because they're the same species are you does not mean you are able to take care of wild theriforms."

"The fact that there aren't that many theriforms of my species is so saddening."

"I wanna do quads alongside a pack of theriform wolves so bad!"

"I am transspecies, here is what I do/what I want to do to look more theriform."

"I wonder if theriforms get species dysphoria?"

Ask game!

Put full question(s) in ask please.

would you consider yourself a furry? if so, do you have a fursona? is your fursona based on one of your 'type(s)?

this isnt a question but a request that you drink some water!

authors note: feel free to reblog! other beings can ask you questions from this list, or you can simply answer them all yourself.

We found the meme. Here's the link for anyone who wants to see it, lol.

Does anyone know where to find the meme video where it's like "adhd moods" and reads off of a bunch of them and there are ones like "no distraction only focus, no focus only distraction"?

We want to find it so bad, lol.

Tw: sex mention, technically nsfw(?) Not in too much detail, but talk about sexual stuff. Also, slight(?) exotrauma to do with sexual trauma. Hypersexuality and sex repulsion (probably not technically tw/cw but still)

Edit: We mostly try and keep more nsfw stuff off of our blog and account, but yeah.

Do any beings have tips for dealing with hypersexuality and sex repulsion at the same time? (Also, just tips for hypersexuality that don't involve actually "giving into the urges" [that's probably not the right phrasing, but we are tired and dumb rn]).

This shit is so fucking annoying and what makes it even worse is that as far as any of us know in this life and body we never went through sexual trauma, but some of us (overall pack) did in past lives. (All of us in the ShaySubpack did experience it).

Thanks!

We do have windows, we think it's not 11, but yeah it shouldn't be that different. And yes we use the official launcher.

Though we wanna quickly say that we use Minecraft Bedrock in case that makes a difference.

Also we will check if this works later!

We just had an idea but we don't know how to go about it.

We would love to do commissions for Minecraft. But we don't know how we would give the commissions except for pictures and stuff but we would love to actually give the world(s) for the commissions but don't know how to do that. If any being knows how to do that, please let us know.

We have once again been reminded that we might not be able to work a job by seeing what is required by some jobs and knowing that we can't/can't always do those things.

This shit sucks cause we need money. And more specifically, we need money that doesn't come from the body's dad as we want to get away from him [cause of him being transphobic, homophobic, etc.]. And he doesn't even get ***that much*** money. He is disabled and a retired veteran.

We also need money to get a service dog, which might make working easier/doable, but also we just might not be able to work at all.

We don't even really know what "reasonable accommodation(s)" means for most jobs. Let's say, for example, a place requires a worker to be able to lift like 50 pounds. If someone can't lift that, are they allowed accommodation for that? Is it based on the place specifically?

Working and job stuff are hard to figure out. If any being has any tips on this stuff, please share it with us. (We live in the US, btw. We don't want to share what state, though, so that might affect stuff).
